Great thread. Thanks for all the updates '52 F-3
Hey guys, I have a '69 Chevy 250 block That I need to rebuilt. Would love to have assembly as well, but I'll take the rebuild only. Looking for...
Before installing the passenger vent window, I had to move the pivot point back to it's original position ( I chopped this frame in a different...
6-5-22 Update. All glass is done. I had the rear window re-cut, & it went in nice. Installing the lock bead was a bit tricky, but not too bad...
Center strip detail. The 2 pictures or the rubber show the original back window channel, & the modified version. I cut the pinchweld side so that...
5-30-22 Update: Some Success. I figured the windshield right, I figured the back window wrong. Using Masonite for the patterns was a good idea,...
Thanks for the reply guys, I will transfer the cardboard to Masonite or plexi if I have some laying around. I'm using original style Rubber...
Hey guys, Did a search, but could not find anything. Looking for some advice on measuring for windshield & rear (fixed) glass after top chop...
Not sure if it applies to your car, but when I did my '53 Chevy truck vent windows, I realized that keeping the upper pivot / hinge in the factory...
I like it.
61 Impala on a bike trailer I made. I'll use the same on my '49 chevy truck project
Really nice. Would like to see the new pics. Now that you've put it into service, have you run into any bugs that need working out, or any other...
Doesn't make him a bad person...
If you really want a cool engine, go with an air cooled, like a VW or corvair. How could you go wrong? Heck, it has "cool" right in the name, so...
I agree, and the issue may go further than that. I say may 'cause I'm far from an expert, but it would seem to me that; the "4 link" intention...
it's true.
Me too. Looks like a sweet setup. Got any more pics? I'd like to see the steering too.
Doing 1/4's in the rear is a great way to eliminate the need for any frame over the axle. I considered doing it, but since I had wanted...
You mean you're going to take your ball & go home? :( Wahhh. & after such a pertinent contribution. DARN... Darn it to HECK !! (BTW. I...
Really nice picture though.
As an advocate for water pumps everywhere, I take umbrage at that...
There was a nice little slant 6 rod, & a pair of pickups who's owners are buddies. The one on the right was reportedly built in 2 months.
There was a nice rod for sale for a reasonable price, & a pretty Impala with a very nice custom cloth interior.
Some more. The first truck was so clean, the picture really doesn't capture it.
Not really. Actually, I switched lenses after a few hours & took some people pics, & I started going thru them from the end. The first car had a...
That really was a pretty car. I was wondering how it stopped with only rear brakes. I got some pics, but haven't gone thru them all yet.
Ejay$, I only noticed 1 car there that had mechanical rear brakes, & no front brakes, is this yours? I left before the awards. Great show. Rick.
I'm interested to see the outcome. I am dealing with the same exact issue, & am planing on using copper lines & compression fittings to the...
I was planning on going, but I don't wanna get bashed or made fun of. It's not easy being a "Little Person" you know. :mad:
